Chemical evolution of amino acids and proteins ? Impossible !!
#42
RE: Chemical evolution of amino acids and proteins ? Impossible !!
OK, let's look at the data:

By volume, the universe is 99.999...[we may be here a while reading 9s]...999% cold, empty vacuum. The overwhelming majority of the space that has any matter in it is filled with stars, neutron stars, black holes, or is otherwise inhospitable. The fraction of space that is habitable is laughably small.

By mass, the universe is 95% dark matter and dark energy. You can't even interact with the rubbish except through gravity. Of the 5% of the universe's mass that is regular matter and energy, the overwhelming majority is stellar plasma, neutronium, and singularities. A trivially small mass makes up planets but the overwhelming majority of them are too dense, too airless, too hot, too cold, too irradiated, too caustic, rains rock too frequently, or is otherwise a bad neighbourhood. The mass of the habitable portion of the universe is also trivially small.

By duration, the universe is 99.999...[is there a sale on 9s?]...999% slowly evaporating black holes. The current habitable epoch is a barely observable blip between the primordial quark-gluon plasma and the dark, empty universe dominated by black holes that is the future. Once the last star gutters out in a few trillion years there are untold trillions of trillions of years of watching the universe slowly circle the drain before the last of the supergiant black holes finally evaporates into picoKelvin Hawking radiation.

Any objective observer looking at the universe would conclude that the universe is not the result of any intelligence. They would be unlikely in the extreme to even notice us to note that we were not the reason for its existence.
